Home saunas can take many shapes and sizes, but by far, the most impressive and beautiful types of home saunas are designer saunas.

Traditional, pre-designed saunas usually look somewhat rustic. If you have rustic home décor or like the look of rich cedar, a traditional sauna room from Polar Sauna or Avalon Quality Saunas is probably perfect for you. But if your tastes run more towards the contemporary, a designer home sauna from MrSauna or Northern Lights Sauna may be a better match for your lifestyle.

Designer saunas work the same as traditional saunas, with either steam or dry heat to relax the bather, but they're usually constructed of lighter wood and glass and have rounded corners rather than dark wood with box-like angles. MrSauna designer saunas are sleek, constructed of light, high-quality woods and glass walls and will fit a contemporary décor.

Some designer saunas, like those from Northern Lights saunas, won't cost any more than a traditional sauna. If you want a contemporary look throughout your home, and want your sauna to match that look, a designer home sauna may be the best option for you.
